Jewelry frame

Abstract

An elongated upright rectangular frame surrounds a backboard having a front surface overlaid by a coextensive section of fabric material is provided with a monofilament strand tautly stretched across the fabric and backboard front and back surface from opposing sides thereof defining a series of longitudinally spaced parallel runs of the strand on the visable portion of the backboard for supporting a plurality of jewelry pieces when placed thereon. The frame further includes a plurality of shelves supported by vertically spaced pairs of knobs on the inner surfaces of opposite side panels of the frame. A shelf and drawer unit is similarly removably supported by pairs of knobs in which the drawers may be separately removed from the unit or the entire unit removed from the frame. Additionally, a series of horizontally inwardly projecting dowel-like rods support necklaces and the like.
